Ordinary students absorbed the dragon mark energy step by step, and the absorption efficiency was not high.
However, Kang Shin-mu used his devouring power to directly devour the dragon mark energy, and he could also devour the dragon mark energy around him. His absorption efficiency was ten times higher than that of ordinary Dragon Warrior students.
Ran Ran, Liang Xiao, and the others were not too slow in absorbing the dragon mark energy either.
They were all showing off their abilities. They had exchanged the points from the Void Beast experience for some treasures like the Dragon Scar Blood Pendant that could increase the absorption efficiency of the dragon mark energy.
These treasures were not as heaven-defying as the Dragon Scar Blood Pendant, but they could increase their absorption efficiency by two or even three times.
This way, the four of them could absorb the dragon mark energy at a fast rate.
At least before reaching the sixth level of Dragon King, it was still very fast.
In just half a month, Ran Ran, Liang Xiao, and the others' Dragon King blood essence levels had increased by two levels, reaching the fifth and fourth levels respectively.
Xiao Yuhua and the girl in white had reached the seventh level of Dragon King blood essence, which was a relatively high level, and they were faster than Kang Shin-mu.
Kang Shin-mu was now at the sixth level of Dragon King blood essence. Even though he was in the Phecda region and the Dragon Martial Academy had increased the concentration of the dragon mark energy, it would still take him more than two months to break through to the seventh level of Dragon King.
Apart from the scattered dragon mark energy that Kang Shin-mu had devoured previously, and now that he had devoured half a month's worth of dragon mark energy, Kang Shin-mu still needed about a month to reach the seventh level of Dragon King.
During this time, Kang Shin-mu did not plan to stay in the academy to devour.
He decided to go to the Beast Abyss to obtain experience points and exchange for treasures that contained rich dragon mark energy!
In any case, the Dragon King blood essence he had absorbed from the sixth to the seventh level had already exceeded half of the dragon mark energy. It would not affect his strength much if he continued to absorb treasures.
It would only allow him to break through to the seventh level of Dragon King faster!
Originally, it would have taken a few months. Now, if he was lucky, he might be able to reach his goal in a few days.
Therefore, the Beast Abyss was absolutely necessary.
Furthermore, the efficiency of the others in absorbing the dragon mark's energy in the Dragon Martial Academy was not as good as Kang Shin-mu. If they continued to stay in the academy, the gap between them and Kang Shin-mu would only widen.
…
Twenty days after the energy of the dragon mark of Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Academy skyrocketed …
Kang Shin-mu brought Ran Ran, Liang Xiao, Xiao Yuhua, and the white-dressed girl with him, planning to head to the Beast Abyss.
Nothing major happened in Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Arts Academy. There were just some conflicts between the new and old students. These had nothing to do with Kang Shin-mu.
If it wasn't for Kang Shin-mu's terrifying battle prowess in the Academy's Grand Competition, those new students would have come looking for trouble with him.
Unfortunately, the battle prowess that Kang Shin-mu had displayed during the battle with White Scorpion Qian Bing made everyone realize that he was not to be trifled with!
At least, among all the new students, apart from Gu Yusheng and another girl, no one was a match for Kang Shin-mu. The likes of Ninth Young Master Gu and Young Master Liang couldn't even take a single blow from Kang Shin-mu.
Gu Yusheng and that girl were now students in the Imperial Center District. They had already headed to the vicinity of the crack in the void. Naturally, they wouldn't come looking for trouble with Kang Shin-mu.
Therefore, in Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Arts Academy, where the new and old students were at odds with each other, Kang Shin-mu had never been disturbed by anyone. It was rather quiet.
"They're out."
When Kang Shin-mu's group of five headed to Emperor Xi's Formation, two new students saw them secretly. They immediately left from a hidden spot near Emperor Xi's Formation, wanting to inform someone.
Not long after, the two new students saw Ninth Young Master Gu and Young Master Liang, who were drinking and having fun with several young girls.
Ninth Young Master Gu and Young Master Liang were now students in Yuheng District. They were considered mid-level students in Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Arts Academy. Moreover, they came from hidden dragon martial arts families and were the direct descendants of their respective families. Naturally, their statuses were distinguished.
Not to mention the new students who were selected from the Dragon Emperor's Kingdom, even some of the old students thought highly of these two people.
Today, Ninth Young Master Gu and Young Master Liang held a banquet together. They invited many graceful and beautiful young dragon martial artists to drink and have fun together.
Of course, those young female students who had surpassed Yuheng District would not be interested in these two fellows.
On the other hand, those young female students who had always been in Yaoguang District and had tried their best to improve themselves ran over to seduce these two young masters. They planned to fight for some cultivation resources so that they could improve themselves.
They knew what kind of price they would have to pay, but they didn't think that it was inappropriate. After all, the dragon martial artists respected the strong. As long as they could become stronger, they were willing to pay any price!
"Ninth Young Master Gu, Young Master Liang, Kang Shin-mu has gone to Emperor Xi's Formation with his men and has disappeared!"
The two new students who had been monitoring Emperor Xi's Formation came to Ninth Young Master Gu's palace. They immediately went to his side and whispered into his ear.
"Oh?
How many of them? "
Ninth Young Master Gu's face instantly lit up and he asked in a low voice.
"A total of five people. Kang Shin-mu is the strongest. The rest, in my opinion, are all useless!"
The new student chuckled. "Young Master's arrangements can be put to good use!
I think they are most likely going to Beast Abyss. This time, Kang Shin-mu will definitely not come back alive! "
It seemed that they had made arrangements in Beast Abyss.
Only students of Dragon Martial Arts Academy could enter Beast Abyss. However, it was not limited to students of Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Arts Academy!
Therefore, if they wanted to make arrangements, they could indeed arrange for some strong students to enter Beast Abyss and attack Kang Shin-mu.
If he killed Jiang Shenwu in the Beast Abyss, no one would be able to detect it.
On the surface, Ninth Young Master Gu and Young Master Liang did not have any conflict with Kang Shin-mu. However, they still adored Ran Ran. If they wanted to get Ran Ran, they had to kill Kang Shin-mu. Moreover, they could not expose that they were the ones who attacked Kang Shin-mu.
Kang Shin-mu had cultivated in Emperor Xi's Dragon Martial Arts Academy for 20 days. Now that he had finally left the academy, he had given them a chance.
Everything they had done against Kang Shin-mu had been carried out in secret.
Apart from their own people, no one else knew.
Therefore, Kang Shin-mu and the other four did not know that someone had already arranged for them to enter Beast Abyss!
The five of them passed through Emperor Xi's Formation and appeared in Beast Abyss.
When they opened their eyes, the five of them realized that a desert had appeared in front of them. Beside the desert was an ocean covered by dark clouds … The Ancient Nether Sea Road!
